What is Writing?

At our next general membership meeting, Tony Beckwith will talk about the origin of writing, the reasons for writing, and how writing is part of a translator's job.

Tony has been a member of AATIA for about 15 years. He is a writer and translator whose articles and stories were a regular feature of The Letter, the newsletter we used to have before we went digital. He writes a column for Source, the online journal of the ATA's Literary Division.

Marian Schwartz, will also give us details about an exciting activity programmed by the AATIA Literary Special Interest Group.

Join us Saturday, Sept. 11th from 1-4 pm at our downtown ICA location, on the Skillpoint side, for this interesting lecture and networking session with the pros in our field and you will also enjoy deliciously cool refreshments.

AATIA Headquarters is located at 201 East 2nd Street. Free parking is available at the Convention Center parking garage, which is on the west side of the building that houses our offices. Enter from Brazos Street, inform the attendant that you are attending an AATIA event, and sign a garage parking record sheet. There is no charge.

Look forward to seeing you all there!
